Kafkaesque - S3-E9
Continuity mistake: As Saul is trying to explain to Jesse that he needs to launder his money and is trying to get him to buy the nail salon, Jesse says he's not going to and is looking right at him. It cuts to a different angle showing Saul's face and now suddenly Jesse is partly looking off to the side.
Continuity mistake: Walt asks Gale to recite the poem he mentions, which Gale does, reluctantly. When he starts the first line, the camera is behind him and he lifts his head to look up at Walt straight in the eyes. When the camera cuts back to a shot of his face, he's suddenly looking down again.
Continuity mistake: After Combo is killed and Skinny leaves the operation, Jesse and Walt are in Saul's office, explain what happened, and they start bickering. From a side angle you see Saul lean forward in his chair as he yells "Guys guys!" to try and stop them. It then cuts to an angle showing Saul from the front and he's suddenly leaning back in his chair, not forward.
Continuity mistake: In her office, Skyler brings up to her boss, Ted, an issue with a "Keller Account" and puts one hand up to her mouth. In this shot her other arm is crossed over with her other hand resting on the one arm held up. When the angle changes suddenly her arm is outstretched more in front of her with her hand on her papers.
Continuity mistake: When Walt and his wife are on the couch talking about Gretchen saying she was not going to pay for the treatment any more, Walt puts his hand to his mouth when she says that she called Gretchen back but she wouldn't pick up. His hand is over his mouth with his fingers pressed up against his nose. When it cuts to a different angle, suddenly it is just one finger against his lips.
Continuity mistake: When Walter and Jesse try to leave again, Tuco asks them what the hurry is and they say they are done. But then Tuco walks right up to Jesse in one shot and is staring him in the face as he nods. It then cuts to a different angle as Tuco says "You're done" But now suddenly he's standing face to face with Walter and then turns to look at Jesse.
A No-Rough-Stuff Type Deal - S1-E7
Continuity mistake: At the school meeting where they are talking about the investigation and a man is asking about the Janitor, Walt has his mouth open and looks down at his wife's hands. In the next shot from the side, his mouth is closed, but when it cuts to a close up again, his mouth is open once more.
Cancer Man - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: As Walter is telling the story of how he met his wife with the crossword puzzles, there is a cut between two shots when he's saying eventually "I caught her looking over at me." He's first looking straight ahead across the table at his brother in law, but after the cut he's suddenly glancing over towards his wife. (00:05:30)
Continuity mistake: Skyler and Ted talk about the churros and party. Behind Skyler, the power sockets are not being used. The shot after, they are. (00:20:15)
Say My Name - S5-E7
Audio problem: When Mike says all that left is to leave town, the audio in the over the shoulder shot stops but Mike's mouth keeps moving. (00:41:20)
Problem Dog - S4-E7
Continuity mistake: Walt unloads the money that's hidden in the drinks cases. He removes the Pepsi Max case and puts it on the floor, leaving the Coca-Cola case on top. Camera changes and the Pepsi Max case is now back on top. (00:15:00)
Chosen answer: It is part of the ritual for la Santa Muerte. It is a sign of humility and sacrifice.
